t206 Help

[wazoo]

Hey guys I need help. There are 3 t206s with Piedmont backs. On the front though, there are the players stamped with Sweet Caporal fronts. Is there a premium? Extra Value? Will SGC mark this overprint? This help is really important. Thanks.

Here is the card:
I only payed $25. Sorry for the glare. You can see it much better in person.

Scans would be helpful in determining value. I can help you upload them if necessary.

Can't get a scan at the moment. Pretty obvious tho

I can't say whether or not SGC will mark it as an overprint, especially not having seen scans/pics.

I'm responding blind since you haven't posted scans, but there could be a premium to the right collector. If the cards are commons, then I'd say a small premium, again, to the right collector. If the cards are of HOF's, especially the bigger ones such as Cobb, I'd say the premium would be higher.

How much of a premium is anyone's guess, especially not knowing the condition, player or seeing pics.

Bought the card for $25. Scans coming when i get home

I think you're right, Johnny--sounds like some sort of wet sheet or "storage" transfer.

Confirmed they are. Decent example though. :)

Thanks for all the help Chris! It means a lot :) Also, thank you for everyone's input. The scans are above. Pretty cool that they have Piedmont backs with Sweet Caporal fronts, in a way.

Pretty neat example! I've seen wet sheet transfers like this one (one of my examples is below), but never with a different back.

That's what caught my eye! I was like, how does a Piedmont backed card end up with a Sweet Caporal image on the front? My question was answered thanks to Chris and others :D

Anytime the price is that low and you think you might have something, jump on it. You're not going to lose much on a T206 card, even low-grade commons sell for $15, worth the chance

Nice pickup wazoo !!!

It's always interesting to have a T206 with a WST of a different back on the front. Good deal !!

Real simple rule of thumb: it can't be an overprint if the writing is backwards.
